I have read that once the babies get big enough they'll be seen as rivals by the parents. It sounds like that's what has happened with the Duchess.

I had assumed that to be the case Sue. It makes sense.

Whilst it was a bit shocking to witness, it's only natural really.
In the wild the young would naturally separate from the mother, inhabit new territories and the cycle would start over.

Looks like all your hard work has paid off. 

I have enjoyed following their story from first getting their parents, to several false starts (egg eating mysteries), setting up the nursery tank, getting the fish into the tank and up dates on their progress.  Plus all the photos and videos.

Thanks

I've returned from a trip to the LFS where I exchanged the 19 (or 20) juvenile Apistogramma Agassiz for £25 store credit.

I promptly exchanged £20 of credit for a blue/green Tiger Barb, four Otos and two Yamato Shrimp.

All are now happily exploring the quarantine tank (ex Apisto nursery)
